Chemical Signaling Insights
Research suggests that women living in close proximity may influence each other's menstrual cycles through chemical signaling, potentially linked to pheromones. While the exact chemical compounds remain unidentified, evidence indicates that these interactions can either accelerate or delay ovulation depending on the phase of the menstrual cycle. This fascinating interplay highlights the complexity of human chemical communication and its effects on reproductive biology.In this clip
